Benefits of technology

The present invention is about a method and system for 3D printing that can determine if the material being printed conforms to a default condition and either use a single layer coloring method or a multilayer simultaneous coloring method. This improves the efficiency of the 3D printing device and allows for faster and more efficient operation.

Problems solved by technology

However, the method of coloring layer by layer makes the executed 3D printing work lack flexibility and efficiency.
In addition, a conventional 3D printing device also lacks a determining mechanism for dynamically determining whether simultaneously coloring multiple printing layers.

Embodiment Construction

[0035]FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a 3D printing system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the 3D printing system 10 includes a 3D printing device 11 and a host 12. The 3D printing device 11 is configured to perform a 3D printing operation. The host 12 is coupled to the 3D printing device 11 and is configured to control the 3D printing device 11. For example, the host 12 may send a control instruction to instruct the 3D printing device 11 to perform the 3D printing operation. The host 12 may be various electronic devices with functions of data transmission, storing, and processing, such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, a desktop computer, a laptop, or an industrial computer. In addition, the host 12 and the 3D printing device 11 may also be integrated into a single device.

[0036]The host 12 includes a storage device 121 and a processor 122. The storage device 121 is configured to store data and may be a buffer memory, an internal storage...

Abstract

A three dimension (3D) printing coloring method and a 3D printing system are provided. The method includes: generating printing object information according to model information of a 3D object, where the printing object information includes first contour coloring information and second contour coloring information; determining whether a similarity degree of the first contour coloring information and the second contour coloring information conforms to a default condition; if the similarity degree conforms to the default condition, controlling, according to the first contour coloring information and the second contour coloring information, a 3D printing device to perform a simultaneous coloring operation on a first printing layer and a second printing layer of a 3D object. Therefore, a working efficiency of the 3D printing device can be improved.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 106100367, filed on Jan. 6, 2017. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to an operation of a three dimension (3D) printing device, and in particular, to a 3D printing coloring method and a 3D printing system.2. Description of Related Art[0003]Corresponding to different types of the 3D printing device, a molding material may be colored before ejecting or may be colored after ejecting. When the molding material is first ejected and then be colored by the 3D printing device, generally, each time the 3D printing device ejects one layer of molding material, the 3D printing device subsequently colors this layer of the molding material. However, the method of coloring layer by layer make...
